Oil pump woes

Removed oil pump after noticing the bolt had sheared off. Thought it was kinda odd. Upon further investigation found that the pump only rotates about 95% before coming to a dead stop. Removed the case front and the gears look fine. Am I missing something?

Well, you got more miles (kMs) out of your pump that I did mine. Mine died at 217KM.
